Abstract excerpt
Mouse thymic lymphomas are readily induced by radiation and also arise without irradiation when the mice are null in Trp53 functions. In the present study, spontaneous thymic lymphomas in Trp53-/- mice were compared to those arising in irradiated Trp53+/- mice, revealing three features characteristic of the spontaneous lymphomas. (1) Mp53D2, a Trp53 modifier that affects the latent period of radiogenic thymic...
